I use iWeb a lot, but I'm not sure what you are asking... iWeb creates an index.html page, so it really depends on your domain name which doesn't have anything to do with iWeb.

Not if you are useing .mac

You can buy a domain name at a place like GoDaddy and have it redirect to your iWeb page, like:

http://www.jasonrico.com

is the same thing as

http://web.mac.com/jason.rico

domain name

yeah thats what its called the domain name.... how much is it to get the redirecting thing? is godaddy the best place to do it?

thanks!

GoDaddy calls the redirecting thing "Forwarding", and it's included in the price of registering a domain name with them.

Well, it is on my domains that I registered with them 2 years ago. I assume it's still the same.

I've had no problems with GoDaddy. I find their web site a little obnoxious, but it's pretty easy to use to make changes to your domain name and stuff after registering. 🙂

I was wondering how one changes their start site? You see, so far I have one site and its under one .mac account, I have decided to create a .mac alias name and it is with this new alias that i would like to have my new site draw from. I read on iWeb that if I want to have a new start site I should drag my new site to the old site with the name of the start site I wish to have. The problem: I only have one site and that site is the start site so how do i make a second site that will be a new start site? Does any of this make any sense? If it does, I owe you a cookie or three 🙂

I'm not certain if I fully understand what you're asking about, but you might want to check out iWeb Sites––http://versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/28840––which allows you to develop more than one site with iWeb.

Hope this helps.
